Floor Forces Rooster to Reraise
Level 14
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Rooster Oien opened for 4,800 on the button, and Chad Poitra made it 11,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded, and Oien called. Or so he thought. While calling, he dropped some extra chips in his hand to the side of his calling stack before sweeping them back up. The floor was called, and they ruled the extra dropped chips were enough for a raise, but since the exact amount was unknown, Oien would be forced to min-raise. Poitra shoved all in for 131,300, and a frustrated Oien, who had loudly disputed the ruling, went into the tank. After thinking for a couple of minutes, he folded.
Poitra showed .
"Now you know why I fought for that extra money," he said.
